UNIVERSAL HORIZONS: NEIL LEADBEATER (UNITED KINGDOM)

The Early Arrival of PoemsFor the most partthey are the unexpected nigh tlandings –rarely the scheduled flights.These are the planes from Rio, São Paulo,Caracas and Limawho come like ghosts in the middle of thenight.And with them comethe rufous motmots and the hornedscreamers,the acrobats in the tree-tops;the raucous call of the mealy parrot,the nine-banded armadillo and adusky Jacobin.One by one I call them in.De vroege aankomst van gedichtenMeestalzijn zij de onverwachte nachtlandingen-zelden de geplande vluchten.Het zijn de vliegtuigen uit Rio, São Paolo,Caracas en Limadie als geesten opdoemen in het holst van denacht.En daarmee komende scharrelaarvogels en de gehorendehoenderkoetens,de acrobaten in de boomkruinen;de rauwe kreet van de grote amazonepapegaaihet negenbandig gordeldier en eenkapduif.Eén voor één roep ik ze bij me.
